Psalmi 57
1 Dāvida sirds dziesma. Dziedātāju vadonim, pēc: „nesamaitā“; kad tas no Saula bēga alā. Apžēlojies par mani, ak Dievs, apžēlojies par mani, jo uz Tevi cerē mana dvēsele, un apakš Tavu spārnu ēnas es gribu cerēt, kamēr nelaime būs pārgājusi.
[For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.] Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.
2 Es piesaukšu Dievu, to visuaugsto, to stipro Dievu, kas par mani visu izdarīs.
I cry out to God Most High, to God who accomplishes my requests for me.
3 Viņš sūta no debesīm un palīdz man, un apkauno manu aprijēju. (Sela) Dievs sūta Savu žēlastību un patiesību.
He will send from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. (Selah) God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.
4 Mana dvēsele ir starp lauvām; es guļu starp cilvēku bērniem kā starp liesmām; viņu zobi ir šķēpi un bultas, un viņu mēle ass zobens.
My soul is among lions. I lie among those who are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, un Savu godību pār visu pasauli!
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be above all the earth.
6 Tie izpleš tīklu maniem soļiem, mana dvēsele ir nospiesta; manā priekšā tie bedri rakuši, paši krituši iekšā. (Sela)
They have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down. They dig a pit before me. They fall into its midst themselves. (Selah)
7 Mana sirds ir droša, Dievs, mana sirds ir droša, es dziedāšu un slavēšu.
My heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8 Uzmosties, mans gods, uzmostaties, stabules un kokles, es uzmodīšos ar rīta blāzmu.
Wake up, my glory. Wake up, psaltery and harp. I will wake up the dawn.
9 Es Tev pateikšos, Kungs, starp tiem ļaudīm, es Tevi slavēšu starp tautām.
I will give thanks to you, LORD, among the peoples. I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 Jo Tava žēlastība ir liela līdz debesīm, un Tava patiesība līdz padebešiem.
For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.
11 Parādi, Dievs, Savu augstību pār debesīm, Savu godību pār visu pasauli.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
